God of all times and places, 

who in this parish inspired John Mason 

to tell of your greatness and mercy 

through his words and in his life: 

may we too show your love in our words and deeds, rejoice in singing your praises, 

and look forward to the coming of your kingdom, 

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

This memorial to The Revd John Mason was unveiled by the Bishop of Buckingham, The Rt Revd Alan Wilson.  About seventy people attended the Commemoration Service, in which they sang three of Mason's hymns and listened to historical information about Mason's life and work and an interesting address from Bishop Alan.
